Moonrise pairs a strand of small pink baroque pearls, each around 4mm, with one large baroque pearl at the center. The small pearls sit close together and catch the light unevenly, and the centerpiece rises out of them like a moon over water.

Each centerpiece pearl is selected by hand for its surface: the folds, the ridges, the way the luster moves across it. No two are alike, so every necklace carries a pearl of its own.

From a distance, it reads quietly. Up close, the texture and luster of each pearl come through.

Styling Notes At 16 inches, Moonrise sits at the collarbone, which suits open necklines, crew necks, and boat necks. Extend it to 18 inches to wear over a fine knit. Keep other pieces simple so the centerpiece can lead.
